Hi all, I just talked with the US-based Orange Tech Support guy about the DI issue. He said that early models 'slipped' out of the factory with hot DI out and it has since been resolved in later production runs. He also said that you can get a warranty repair done to fix it on older builds -or- they will gladly provide the instructions to mod the amp yourself as it is an easy fix if you know how to solder. He also said that if you're just looking for clean headroom, the AT7's will give you more control, but you can still dial in the same headroom by being more judicious with gain knob. Hope this helps!
